Re: html and php help, please

Anyone know why the logo I made for the main site gets crunched up? It's supposed to be 90 pixels tall. I suspect that the frame that holds top.htm is of fixed height. I am new at this, so any help would be great. If you use te 2 files I send you it wil look alright. only chanced a few numbers and ...

Re: turbo bike

Thanks, guys. Yes it is made for ram air on the intake, intake tuned for about 100m/sec. Design goal is 25mph Nice project but be careful, how many RPM its gone spin?. Maybe around 4000 TPM, you will have to balance it very good, if you don’t want to shake of your bike, and it probably explode be...

new resonator

Check out my new pulsecombustor, I don’t can give dimensions, I only can say it works different than normal pulsejets, the sound reduction is enormous. Still it delivers a little trust, with a recuperater it gives halve a kilo of trust. Here is a video on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=am...

ramjet starter

Here is a picture of the starter motor of the Kolibrie ramjet helicopter.
I get this picture from somebody out of Israel, the are planning to make it fly again in the future.

aerospike

Hi Viv maybe a linear aerospike will be a possibility no central positioning problems here.
google search

What about a solid piece of oxidiser and a solid piece of fuel almost thatching each other on the burning area, controlling the burn rate by the distance between the them.

~~~~First Valveless!!~~~~

Rahul your intake pipe is way to long, I don’t replayed on your post because in the picture it didn’t seem welded together yet, and in the sizes you give in the measurements it looks ok (if you meant inside diameters), the 1/6 ratio off inside diameter/length is a good starting point. In your pi...

augmenters how the work?.

I think the basic of augmentation is as follows. Presume we have two gas masses. One standing still (the air), with a mass of 1. And one moving(the exhaust gasses) also with a mass of 1. The still standing air has no motion energy. The moving exhaust gasses has motion energy, lets say speed 100. The...

augmention

Also, one should not forget the thermal side of the process. Low-temperature exhaust produced by Jetex and turbojets/fanjets benefits but a little from augmentation. High-temperature exhaust of a typical pulsejet benefits much more. That's why (on pulsejets) the benefit is much greater on the short...

Straight Augmentors

Maybe you are right Larry but I still have big doubts, this is a fun thing to find out. I just tried blowing into some pipes and noticed the effect you described, but this was most noticeable with a thick walled pipe and almost undetectable with a thin walled pipe. Also it was stronger with a flared...

augmentors

I doubt of this straight augmentors will ad a lot of drag at high speeds, its impossible to me that some pressure on there surface will give trust positive or negative, they work by increasing the resistance for the exhaust pulses from the pulsejet, and so keeping the high pressure period slightly l...
